    Warning!!!!

    Matt Stairs will be back in 2008!!


    The Jays have begun talking to Matt Stairs about returning for 2008.
    Smart move considering this off-season acquisition turned out better than any other move Toronto made last year. Expect the 39-year-old to get a nice raise from the $850,000 he made this season.

    This could quite possibly be the stepping stone to the Blue Jays being the AL East winners in 2008. hahaha. j/k!! I like Matt Stairs, he seems like a great teammate, friend, and person.

    Here's the guy that been the Jays best player most nights, was offered a Minor League Contract and a chance to win a spot on the roster to be a left-handed bat off the bench and a backup 1st basemen/DH but he's been so much more. I never expected Stairs to be close to 20 HR and 60 RBI this season, not to mention hitting over .300 just a great player to have.

    If anyone deserves to be coming out to the Stone Cold Steve Austin theme song its Stairs.

    Matt Stairs! Great Canadian Hero. Seriously, he was about 2000 miles away from being the prototypical good ole' southern boy.

    He's having a ridiculous year. For example, look at his VORP ranking. 58th among hitters, even with only 346 PAs

    55-61 is: Berkman, M. Young, Tejada, Stairs, Morneau, Carlos Lee, Manny.

    Not bad for an MLC making under a million this year? The Sox are paying J.D. Drew 14 times that for noticeably worse performance. Love it.
